Zebrafish teeth as a model for repetitive epithelial morphogenesis: dynamics of E-cadherin expression [PDF]
Background: The development of teeth is the result of interactions between competent mesenchyme and epithelium, both of which undergo extensive morphogenesis.

The resistance of succedaneous teeth to periapical infection: A series of seven cases
Pediatric dental procedures are carried out largely to prevent the adverse effects of primary teeth infection on succedaneous teeth (ST). The existing literature on how and when periapical infection (PI) from primary teeth affect ST is conflicted.

Ameloblastic fibroma, ameloblastic fibro-odontoma, and odontoma
Ameloblastic fibroma (AF) is a relatively rare true tigators believe that AF and AFO are variations of the mixed tumor in which epithelial and the ectomesenchymal elements are neoplastic. It is characterized by the simultaneous neoplastic proliferation of the mesenchymal and epithelial components without formation of dental hard tissues, namely dentin ...

Temporal and spatial expression of TGF-b 2 in tooth crown development in mouse first lower molar
Transforming Growth Factor b2 (TGF-b2) is involved in the regulation of many important cellular processes during tooth development. In this study we systematically characterized the expression pattern of TGF-b2 in vivo and further analyzed its possible ...

Single-Cell RNA-Sequencing From Mouse Incisor Reveals Dental Epithelial Cell-Type Specific Genes
Dental epithelial stem cells give rise to four types of dental epithelial cells: inner enamel epithelium (IEE), outer enamel epithelium (OEE), stratum intermedium (SI), and stellate reticulum (SR).

Fabrication of functional ameloblasts from hiPSCs for dental application
Tooth formation relies on two types of dental cell populations, namely, the dental epithelium and dental mesenchyme, and the interactions between these cell populations are important during tooth development. Although human-induced pluripotent stem cells

Msx2 in ameloblast cell fate and activity
While many effectors have been identified in enamel matrix and cells via genetic studies, physiological networks underlying their expression levels and thus the natural spectrum of enamel thickness and degree of mineralization are now just emerging ...

Chemical composition of modern and fossil Hippopotamid teeth and implications for paleoenvironmental reconstructions and enamel formation: 1. major and minor element variation [Discussion paper] [PDF]
Bioapatite in mammalian teeth is readily preserved in continental sediments and represents a very important archive for reconstructions of environment and climate evolution.
